As promised in 2010 – we’re back for a Farewell Tour. We know that this tour doesn’t reach all of you, and this list is sure to cause some disappointment, but know that we have done our best to fit what we can into this window of time. December 2012 is the only time that all 5 of us aren’t committed to something in our personal or professional lives. An entire month!!!!

We couldn’t be more excited to get on the road and travel and hit the stage one last time – most importantly we wanted to keep our promise to you guys. We’re going to be playing till the venues try to kick us off the stage. We’re talking 20+ songs a night.

We said we’d return for some proper farewell shows. And here they are.

***A little later today we will post details about presales etc. but for now….here are the shows:

12.03 – London, UK @ O2 Academy Brixton
12.07 – Sao Paulo, Brazil @ Via Funchal
12.11 – Sydney, AUS @ Hordern Pavilion
12.12 – Melbourne, AUS @ Festival Hall
12.19 – Edmonton, AB @ Shaw Conference Centre
12.20 – Calgary, AB @ Big Four Building
12.22 – Montreal, QC @ Metropolis
12.26 – Toronto, ON @ Sound Academy
12.27 – Toronto, ON @ Sound Academy

fucking yes, so glad we have a london date. Sure it's 500 miles away but totally worth it :D

it'd be pretty shitty of them of them to skip the US

What a bummer. I guess I gotta get a passport.

Someone said it might be fake because Pavilion is spelled wrong?

So glad theres a UK date. London here I come!

I wouldn't be surprised if there was no US date though in all honesty. They never made it huge here, as much as they did in Canada, Europe, and Aus.

*fingers crossed* for some US dates

I think they very much did in their prime? Not to mention a large portion of bands in the US over the past decade have been highly influenced by them. I'm extremely sad there is no US date so I hope this is fake

Wait so theres a UK date but no US stop? Bummer guys. (assuming this is true anyways)

but this cant be final routing. itd be crazy to fly to UK & Brazil for 1 date each, and Australia just for 2.

This really bums me out.

Will hit up one of the Toronto dates.
